   " The rise of the oceans began to slow". Whoops, that was somebody else.

   For now the warming seems to have stopped in some places. But in others it is continuing. This past 10 months have been the hottest on record (for the entire earth.) The average temperature has risen 10 degrees F for summer.

   We had a hot rainless summer in Chicagoland. Then bang, suddenly it’s winter, so far winter without snow.

   The temperature ALWAYS rises for summer, that’s what summer means.

   
   And the fact that it gets colder in winter proves there is no global warming.

   
   Of course, those climate scientists define ‘global warming’ as the trend if one takes the average of every thermometer that’s been working for the past hundred years, and that average has been rising by at least 0.5 degrees per century (0.8±0.3 with 95% certainty).

   
   Some of those thermometers show no statistically significant increase. A few even show a statistically significant decrease (but then, with enough thermometers, even if the temperature is rising, 5% will show a statistically significant decrease that is 95% reliable). So clearly, there is no global warming.

   
   Finally, we have much better explorers today than ever before. For 500 years, every navy and merchant marine has been looking for the Northwest Passage. It must have been there all along, since the world isn’t getting any warmer, but we only now managed to find it.

   But Mikie – it hasn’t been colder in the winter, in fact 7 of the warmest winters we have had since they started keeping records have been in the last 15 years.

   What is warming is the ocean and that will disrupt current flow, if the Gulf stream stops or shifts North as it did a few thousand years ago there will be an ice age in Europe (as there was then) because the continent will not be warmed by the air coming off that current.

   To say nothing of the larger more frequent storms. Storms like last winters super snow fall and this years Sandy both of which held much more moisture because of climate change.

   Finally your Northwest passage will not be of much value when crops are failing, coastal cities are being flooded and people are dieing for the disruptions and the wars that will follow as resources become more scarce.

   I don’t mind that your stupidity and willingness to believe the BS being pushed by the denier industry will be killing you and your descendants but you are taking the decent people with you.

   Just like your bike tires held air, then one of them didn’t. It MUST be proof of global warming.

   The tires stopped holding air because the Republican blow-hards took a day off! The pressure dropped so quickly my ears popped!

   If you are elected, Mitt, I will start a whirlwind that will suck up all seven of your homes. Your magic underwear will not help you.

    GET A CLUE!!!!!!!!!!!
    Michael wme is always posting with sarcasm. Sometimes it’s humorous, othertimes it is effective, but his posts are always written with sarcasm. And agree with him or not, his posts are not stupid or ignorant.

    The fact checker would rate that as “true,” because no superstorms happened when he was governor. They don’t seem to get very subtle with their fact checks, sometimes.

    BTW, he never said anything like that.

    Mitt reminds me of that toy writing pad we had as kids that was covered with plastic; you could write anything you wanted on it, then lift the plastic and the slate would be blank and you could write something new on it. Every day, you never can tell what Mitt might say or stand for.
